Wow, you have an amazing gallery, wonderful work. I had no idea which one to comment on, but this one caught my eye above the others. Great concept. It would certainly stink for me if plants felt and all, sort of kills the whole reason I'm a vegetarian and all. Very well done. ^-^

i love the concept you're proposing with this shot. the way you've added "blood" really enhances that. my favorite thing though, is the set up. the two bananas seems lifelike because of the concept, and therefore they seem to almost be clinging to each other, afraid of the pain. and the knife is positioned in such a way that it gives the shot a great feeling of anticipation...you're just waiting for the knife to go all the way through. very interesting shot - original, indeed.

I simply can't begin to say how high quality your work is in both execution and concept.

Haha....sorry I dont want to starve you to death

To ease your troubles, I'm not saying anythings wrong with eating food of course, more about how we treat nature and as the title says what if?

I love the lines and the color in this. To me the descending lines of the knife and the two bananas create visual movement like falling, which emphasizes the feeling of the knife cutting into the bananas. Haha, but I see movement in almost every photograph I look at; that's what I love so much about art. I think a good artist knows how to make a still life that isn't in the least bit still.
It's oddly emotional for the subject. Even without reading your description it brings to mind vulnerability, like the two bananas are huddling together and a knife is cutting human flesh.
And what to say about the color except that I like it? Dark but still vibrant.
This is one of many extremely good photographs that you have in your gallery .

No problem. And thank you, it bothers me when I try to leave a helpful comment and all I get back is "hehe thanks", because it sorta makes me feel like at that point I've already put more thought into their artwork than they have.

a3nima In reply to MyPrivateParty [2005-06-29 02:54:46 +0000 UTC]

Thanks....I kind of wanted them to look a bit....pallid? I think thats the right word. More dead feel if you get what I'm trying to say...

MyPrivateParty In reply to a3nima [2005-06-29 22:59:45 +0000 UTC]

Now i see that. If they were more yellow, it wouldnt give the feeling of being dead or dying as well.

poor bannana. oh well. all in the sake of art and getting a point through. the whole bloody thing looks awsome. it really gives you the effect that makes you wonder if plants feel pain.
